ARAB Stockholm will be moving to a new location

The Arbetarrörelsens arkiv och bibliotek (Labour Movement Archives and Library), Stockholm, will be moving to a new location.

The move can affect your access to our collections and we may close for a period of time. We do not however expect any changes in our hours of service during 2011.

Our aim is to cause as little impact as possible on our users and their research. You should still be prepared for the following:
